Bonfire logo not served (2026-07-11)

After scripts/bonfire/apply-branding.sh the sidebar showed a broken image.

Symptom

• instance_icon was /images/hacktivism-logo.svg but the file returned 404
• data/branding/ on disk is not a public URL; /branding/ is not served by Bonfire

Official docs

Admin Tools — Instance Settings covers instance name and icon in the admin UI only.

No official guide for custom static files in Docker/podman. We use a bind-mount workaround.

Fix

compose.yml mounts data/branding/logo.svg into priv/static/images/hacktivism-logo.svg.
Recreate web: podman-compose up -d --no-deps --force-recreate web
